crochet-covered suitcase

I just remembered that I should post this finished-project picture here, since I blogged about this suitcase way back when it was naked and drab. So here’s the “after” of that previous “before” post. I actually finished the suitcase back in December, but it was a present for my sister and I did the last stitches on it in the car on the way to her birthday party, so I obviously didn’t have time to photograph it before I gave it to her. I borrowed the suitcase back for a few minutes to take photos recently while family-visiting.

A small detail: that crooked picture in the background is a very sweet photograph of my sisters when they were much younger. I don’t know why it’s hanging so sideways, but I kinda like it.
